Saracen's Prototype 29er DH Bike at Mont-Sainte-Anne

Matt Walker (the British Junior) has a new 29er downhill bike, too!

Another prototype 29er DH bike has been discovered at Mont-Sainte-Anne with a rider named Matt Walker. British Junior ripper for Saracen, Matt Walker (not to be confused with the Kiwi Elite on the Cube squad with the same name), has a big-wheeled bike for the rough Quebec course. The carbon rear triangle is the same one used on the 27.5 bikes with the axle in the longest chainstay setting. The front triangle and lower link are one-off aluminum prototypes. The FOX 49 fork adorns the bike up front and DT Swiss EX471 rims with Maxxis Minion 29 x 2.4 tires are mounted up. This is the first 29er Matt has ridden, it's his first time in MSA and this is the only bike he brought. Committed! -by Dan Hearn
